Guess and check reveals 5, 14 as the only possible answer. We could also solve it by letting x and 3x-1 be the integers, setting x(3x-1) = 70, and solving. If we wanted the fastest way to solve the problem, then based on the context of the problem, it would be guessing and checking. \n" ); document.write( "
